Last year my niece had twins. I wanted to make something nice for them, so I chose little dresses and cardigans. When I finished with the outfits, there was still some yarn and ribbon leftover. That led to this:
I used the yarn and ribbon and some fabric from my stash to make these. They were donated to the church to help new mothers in need.

You’re lucky I’m a good boy or I would have chewed up those dinosaurs.
My motives were not entirely altruistic, however. I counted the materials I used in my One Thing Each Day challenge.
******************
I know some of you have wondered what happened to us. Murphy is fine. Me not so much. In extremely rare cases, psoriasis can go to the eyes. I can’t win even a scratch off lottery ticket, but somehow I can do this.
Anyway, right now the glare from computer screens is too much for me for more than a few minutes at a time, so I can’t do Bitey Dog (or do online banking or file taxes. Eek!). As soon as I feel better, we’ll be back to telling bitey stories! 😊
The Adventures of Bitey Dog 
So very sorry you are having huge problems….hoping for things to improve for you soon.
Thanks!
What beautiful dresses and cardigans! 😍The shoes and dinosaurs are adorable!
Nox agrees with Murphy, those dinosaurs look like they would be fun to chew! She was impressed with the picture, “you look a lot like me! “
I am so sorry about your eyes. I hope it isn’t permanent and you recover quickly. (Hugs)
I’m hoping I can get the swelling down quickly. I’ve read that psoriasis is gut centered, so I am trying to address my internal organs as well as my other symptoms.
Hee hee, we do look similar! – Murphy
I hope getting your gut working well help with your overall health.
Me too!
Wow…those eye problems are NOT the way 2026 is supposed to start and I hope the problems clear as quickly as possible. Meanwhile I continue to be in awe at your creative and craft skills and look forward to receiving a cardigan in my size next time you have a h.u.g.e. amount of left over materials. Please do not send dinosaurs as I cannot guarantee their safety in my present environment.
What size are you? You know, so your Coat of Many Colors fits properly?
Hmm, maybe Reiko would enjoy a Murphy-scented dinosaur the cuddle (and eat).
Those are beautiful! I believe my pug, the little black one, would love the dino to chew on! Now, he has his yellow bananas.
The shelter gave Murphy a banana toy, but he doesn’t play with toys. I’ve never known a pup that doesn’t play.
So, Little Black Pug, which color of dino would you prefer? 😆
Well, he would love red which is the color of his favorite bone. But it is challenging to speak up for him!
😆
Those are beautifully crafted items that will be treasured. I do hope you will see improvement soon.
Thanks. I hope so too. I haven’t been able to work since this happened. It makes me a bit concerned. ☹️
Hope your new year is off to a good start!
As good as can be expected currently, but I will do my best.
oh my word! I’m going to put you on our prayer list because you need the big guns, and my friends are WARRIORS! And those outfits are beautiful!
Thank you! I really need warriors. ❤️💕

LOVE AND HUGS ME AND THE TRIBE OF MANY PAWS
